The adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott AW13 collection will soon be hitting stores and Hypebeast has decided to highlight a few of the key pieces. While an updated version of the fan favorite teddy bear sneaker is part of the latest line, as well as the winged hightops, there are a couple of additions that will have people raising their eyebrows in both admiration and bemusement in no time.
One of the stand out designs in the adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott AW13 collection has to be the zebra patterned sneaker. While that print may not be all that interesting to note, the tail that snakes out from the back of the heel is. As quirky as the American fashion designer's past creations have been, this particular shoe adds a good dose of exoticism.
